Consider a free neutron present in space. What can we NOT say about it ? |
It is highly unstable decays into and electron and proton and neutrino Has a mean life of about 1000s decays into and electron and proton and antineutrino |
decays into and electron and proton and neutrino |
A free neutron present in space decays into and electron and proton and antineutrino with a mean life of about 1000 s (~15 minutes). This is called Beta decay. |
